The statement follows the @ICRC's most recent visit to Guantanamo, held last month. The organization says there have been 139 delegation trips to the Navy base since Camp X-Ray opened in January 2002 -- to meet with both prisoners and prison leadership. (Red Cross handout photo)

Good luck @MarkSZaidEsq -#PrePub #censorship to manipulate the minds of the public must cease. I’m appealing redactions of matters of public record & previously cleared material in “The End of Innocence”, about the legacy of #Guantanamo & #torture. #TruthMatters @knightcolumbia

Biden administration submitted the 6th U.S. periodic report to the UN Committee Against Torture which covers the time period from 2014 through early 2021. The report was submitted just before the election of new experts to the Committee. THREAD 1/ aclu.org/report/united-…
